Guys can't hang out with girls as friends?

[BlueDays]

.....Believe it or not, not all guys only want sex from women. You're allowed to have things in common, like each other and do things together from time to time without bringing sex or physical intimacy into it. Sometimes it's not even all that different from hanging out with a guy.

^ Good to know there are some guys who "get" that. :applause::thumbup:

Yea hellhound I would have thought it was pretty obvious I love lions wasn't saying what you were implying.
Maybe you misunderstood her.

Haha, probably. My apologies.

I just don't think that some traits are relevant at all, speaking generally :bigsmile:

I'm sure there are guys out there who can hang out with girls. I haven't met any in all the times that I have that could just go out and hang out as friends without them trying to put the sexual moves on me or ask a sexual question. I am usually very upfront on the most that all I want is friendship too. It would be nice to have a good male friend to talk to and laugh with.. It's not like I have not given them a chance. Something really turned me off from talking to one not long ago.. we were just having a conversation and laughing and he asked me out of the blue if I have ever kissed another girl.. I told him repeated that I was not like that and the sad part he kept asking over and over... So, I said.. what you are saying is I'm not supposed to have female friends or you are going to think we are like that. There again.. the conversation went into something sexual.. not between him and a girl.. but between me and another girl... Go bang your head ..quit thinking that way...:kickingmyself:

I feel your pain. I can't be friends with other men and girl friends wind up wanting more than friendship more often than not.

I haven't read any posts in this thread including the OP as I have to rush off to work. I am only going off the title, but, I am a relentlessly straight male and 90% of my friends are girls. So, yes, it is perfectly possible.

Most of the people think that guy and girl can not be friends. And They are right. You spend some time with this guy and i am sure. You well fall in love with Him or He will fall in love with You.

I don't necessarily agree because me and him don't have any hobbies that we have in common. I wouldn't go out and date someone who was almost or the polar opposite of me, but maybe going out as friends that's where I draw the line. What happens if I did fall in love with him or if he fell in love with me and I start falling out of love because we are so different from each other. Some relationships just don't work together when there isn't really that connection the spouses feel for each other. The people who probably think that a guy and girl can't be friends I'm assuming is because they've watched so many shows/movies/magazines/commercials where guys and girls always have these love triangles, love at first sight, best friends fall in love cliche and so on. It's not partially true. Just because me and this guy hung out together for a day that is, it doesn't mean I'm going to feel a connection between us, even if we did start hanging out more. I can't be in a relationship with someone who I'm not connected to.

All of my friends are males that also have most friends of the opposite sex, I can assure you that none of us are polygamous :bigsmile:

Yes, it is possible to be just friends. There's more into falling in love than just the fact that the other person is the opposite sex. Personalities have to "click" for that to happen. It's a special kind of relationship not everyone has with others.
